Important information 1.6 Safety instructions for truck crane work

1.6

Safety instructions for truck crane work Carefully select a safe site for the truck crane to stand from where you can work safely.

Check over the truck crane before beginning crane work. Check the condition of the truck crane carefully using the checklists in the operating instructions. Do not assume that everything is in working order simply because it was in working order when work was last completed.

Check daily before starting to work with the crane that all guards and safety devices are correctly fitted and that they are all in a proper condition.

Check the safety devices each day before beginning work (RCL, lifting limit switch, dead man's switch, emergency stop switch for crane control).

Use the appropriate access aids when carrying out overhead rigging or maintenance work. Do not use parts of the crane as access aids.

Walk only on those machine parts which are equipped with appropriate steps and railings and therefore guarantee safety.

Use a suitable safety harness when walking on other surfaces – this also applies to sanded surfaces.

During rigging and maintenance work on machine sections above body height which have no apparatus for accessing them, always use the extension ladder supplied (e.g. when reeving the hoist rope on the boom head).

Keep all handles, steps, step treads and ladders free of dirt, snow and ice.

Check all operating and control elements in the crane cab before starting the diesel engine.

Monitor all warning and indicator lamps as well as the control instruments when the engine is started.

Make sure that there are no unauthorized people in the vicinity of or on the truck crane when rigging or during crane work. Secure the danger zone using cordons and mark the zone as such.

13.03.2015

When lifting a load, raise the boom to balance out the increase in radius caused by the boom bending so that the load is lifted up vertically and does not drag, injure helpers or fall into the hoist rope diagonally (e.g. from a vehicle or scaffolding). Inform banksmen and helpers about this as well.

Important information 1.6 Safety instructions for truck crane work

Before turning the superstructure, support the truck crane with the outrigger span required for the currently rigged counterweight.

Ensure that the truck crane is horizontally aligned before carrying out crane work.

Only use equipment (counterweight sections, lattice extensions) that belongs to your truck crane. Both the truck crane and the equipment must have the same serial number.

Simultaneously lifting loads with two cranes is particularly dangerous. Use extreme caution when carrying out this type of work.

When work is interrupted, always put the load down and never leave the truck crane if a load is raised.

Lock the truck crane when you leave the cab to prevent unauthorized use.

13.03.2015

Crane work carried out in the vicinity of live electrical cables as well as oil, gas or other supply lines is dangerous and requires that special precautionary measures be taken. Please refer to the section titled Crane operation under special operating conditions in the Safety manual, and observe the relevant national regulations.

8.7/15 m swing-away lattice extension 3.3 Identification of the swing-away lattice extension

3.3

Identification of the swing-away lattice extension The swing-away lattice extension is designed for the truck crane with which it was delivered. The sections of the swing-away lattice extension belonging to the truck crane have the same serial number as the truck crane.

The following sections are identified by the serial number: – Section 1 (8.7 m) on the fixed section, – Section 1 (8.7 m) on the inclinable section, – Section 2 (6.3 m).

S H

S

Risk of accidents during operation with non-modified swing-away lattice extension Only operate the truck crane with those sections of the swing-away lattice extension which have the same serial number as the crane.

The RCL is set only for this swing-away lattice extension.

This prevents malfunctions and damage.

For technical reasons a truck crane may only be set with one swing-away lattice extension.

If you wish to use the swing-away lattice extension on several truck cranes, the parts of the swing-away lattice extension must be adjusted for these cranes and labelled with all serial numbers.

Risk of accidents if not adjusted correctly.

The adjustment of the swing-away lattice extension may only be carried out

by Manitowoc Crane Care.

H

The length data for the swing-away lattice extension of 8.7 m and 15 m corresponds to the distance between the centre of the locking pin (on the main boom head) and the frontedge of the head sheave.

That is why the length data of the components in the Transport dimensions and weights section and their sums do not correspond to the specified p. 2 - 1. lengths of lattice extension;

H

The Lifting capacity tables primarily contain the term Swing-away lattice extension. This term will only be used later in this chapter, when a length specification is necessary.

When no length data is necessary (e.g. for rigging work), the term Lattice extension is only used when the text needs to be as short as possible.

Description of rigging work

3.7.1

Preparing the truck crane for rigging Do not override the RCL when lowering into a horizontal position.

If the following prerequisites are met, lowering into the horizontal position with lattice extension and a slewing range of 360° is permitted and is monSetting the RCL, p. 3 - 96. itored by the RCL;

à

Prerequisites for rigging

The following requirements must be met before the rigging of a lattice extension is started: – the lattice extension is mounted at the side on the main boom and is in transport condition.

– The counterweight version required according to the Lifting capacity table for the planned operation with the lattice extension is rigged.

– The truck crane is supported by the outrigger span required acc. to the Lifting capacity table for the planned operation with the lattice extension and is level.

– The main boom is completely retracted and has been lowered into horizontal position.

– All telescopic sections are completely retracted as far as possible.

– If the truck crane is equipped with two hoists as additional equipment, the hook block is unreeved on the hoist, which is not used for working with the lattice extension.

Prerequisites for unrigging

Before you lower the lattice extension into a horizontal position, the following requirements must be met: – No other load is raised apart from the hook block.

– The counterweight version required according to the Lifting capacity table for the planned operation with the lattice extension is rigged.

– The truck crane is supported with the outrigger span prescribed for operation with the rigged lattice extension according to the Lifting capacity table.

– All telescopic sections are completely retracted as far as possible.

– The RCL code for operation with the rigged lattice extension has been entered.

Securing lattice extension with cord

If the truck crane is not well aligned, the lattice extension may swing out of its own accord when you remove the last connection that held the lattice extension at the side of the main boom.

You must therefore secure the lattice extension before you begin with the rigging work.

G

Risk of accidents from lattice extension swinging of its own accord Always secure the lattice extension with a guide rope on the main boom before removing any connections.

This will prevent the lattice extension from slipping off the run-up rail, swinging around and knocking you off the carrier or injuring other persons in the slewing range.

Secure the lattice extension as follows:

• Attach a cord (2) at the front of the lattice extension.

• Guide the cord underneath the lattice extension, via the holding rod (1) on the main boom and back again.

• Have a helper hold the cord tight while you are removing the last connection.

13.03.2015

H

If you are alone, secure the other end of the cord on the crane (depending on the slewing direction of the superstructure, e.g. on the rear right on the outrigger beam or on the left on the steps of the access ladder to the carrier).

3.7.2

Checking the transport condition For transportation you must establish certain connections between both sections of the lattice extension. The connections which need to be established depend on whether the lattice extension: – is folded up at the side of the main boom for transportation or – is completely removed for transportation.

Transport condition is when the lattice extension has been removed as described in the corresponding checklists.

S

Risk of damage to the lattice and the main boom Always put the lattice extension into transport condition before driving the truck crane with a lattice extension folded at the side or working with the main boom.

Only then is the lattice extension secured against slipping.

This way you prevent the partly fastened lattice extension hitting the main boom or the individual components of the lattice extension hitting each other and becoming damaged.

You have to check the transport condition: – After unrigging the lattice extension, before you drive the truck crane with the lattice extension folded at the side or work with the main boom.

– Before installation and before rigging the lattice extension.

The corresponding checklists require that the lattice extension is in transport condition.

The following paragraphs and the diagram show the necessary connections for the transport condition with the lattice extension folded at the side and removed.

H

S

All information in this section only applies to the hydraulically derricking lattice extension.

The hydraulic supply is provided through a hose drum on the right-hand side of the main boom. The hosedrum is equipped with an anti-twist device.

The anti-twist device is only needed for installing and removing the hosedrum.

Risk of damage to hydraulic hoses Always check if the anti-twist device is active before beginning operation with the lattice extension.

By doing this you prevent the hydraulic hoses tearing when the main boom is telescoped.

The anti-twist device must be active to operate with the lattice extension.

• Check if the spring latch (3) is inserted in one of the bores (1). In this case, you must unlock the anti-twist device.

Unlocking anti-twist device Withdraw spring latch (3) from the bore in the flanged wheel.

Inserting anti-twist device If the hose drum has to be removed, you have to insert the anti-twist device beforehand.

G

Risk of accidents from uncontrolled turning of hose drum The anti-twist device always has to be inserted before the hose drum is removed. Otherwise, the hose drum will twist uncontrollably against the holder and could injure you.

During operation

During operation the lattice extension is derricked from the crane cab.

The lattice extension can be derricked only when the derricking gear for the lattice extension is switched on.

After turning on the ignition, all power units are switched off and the indicator lamps in the corresponding rocker buttons light up dimly.

Switch on the derricking gear of the lattice extension

• Press button (1) once.

– The lamp in button (1) lights up brightly.

– The symbol (2) is green if the derricking gear of the lattice extension is switched on.

All other power units to which the same control lever movement is assigned are now switched off (e.g. derricking gear and telescoping mechanism).

Raising and lowering

H

Lowering:

Push the control lever to the right – the lattice extension is lowered.

Raising:

Push the control lever to the left - the lattice extension is raised.

The lattice extension is lowered or raised as long as the corresponding control lever is pushed in the corresponding direction or until the end position or a switch-off point is reached.

When the lattice extension is derricked, the RCL automatically switches to the values specified in the lifting capacity table for fixed lengths (0° inclination) and intermediate lengths (0-20° or 20-40° inclination) when this is permitted for the load currently being raised.

13.03.2015

If this switchover is not permitted for the load currently raised, derricking will be switched off and a corresponding error message will be generated.

Setting the angle – without the auxiliary crane If an auxiliary crane is not available, the lattice extension must be set down before it is angled.

S Entering the RCL code

Risk of damage to the hoist rope Unreeve the hook block and set down the hoist rope beside the lattice extension before you angle the lattice extension.

In this way you prevent the hoist rope from being damaged when the head of the lattice extension is set down on the ground for angling.

When angling without an auxiliary crane, you must enter an RCL rigging code. The RCL rigging code depends on: – the rigged outrigger span – the rigged counterweight – the working position

G G

Risk of overturning with impermissible rigging mode Always enter the RCL rigging code for the current rigging mode of the truck crane, and only slew the superstructure into the working position permitted by the RCL rigging code set according to the Lifting capacity table.

This prevents the truck crane from overturning when the main boom is extended.

Risk of overturning with raised hook block (hook tackle) The telescoping range which is enabled for the rigging code set is only permissible for telescoping without a load and without hook block/hook tackle.

When the main boom is fully extended, load measurement is not possible and the RCL monitoring depends on the working radius.

For this reason, you must unreeve the hook block. This prevents the truck crane from overturning when the main boom is extended.

• Enter the RCL rigging code for angling in accordance with the current rigging mode of the truck crane; à Lifting capacity tables - Chapter Rigging tables - Swing-away lattice extension.

G G

This section assumes that the lattice extension has been pinned in front of the main boom and the unreeved hoist rope has been set down beside the lattice extension.

Risk of accidents if this procedure is not followed!

For the procedure described here, the lattice extension must be set down on the ground. If the lattice extension is to be set down on some other structure for inclination, please bear in mind that the lattice extension will slide towards the truck crane when raised, until the angle of inclination is reached.

This means that the lattice extension could slip off an unsuitable structure, fold down and injure yourself or other people.

Risk of accidents when RCL is overridden Never override the RCL if the crane movements are switched off. In this way you prevent the superstructure from being slewed into impermissible areas and the truck crane tipping over as a result.

• Enter the RCL rigging code for the inclination;

à p. 3 - 88.

• Extend the main boom as far as is permitted for the RCL rigging code set, or as far as possible given the space available.

H Inclining the truck crane

If you inclined the truck crane using the outriggers, align it to the horizontal now so that the lattice extension sections can be folded more easily.

In order to set the angle of the lattice extension, you must set it down on the ground by extending and lowering the main boom.

Depending on the space available, the condition of the terrain or a limitation on the telescoping due to the current rigging mode, it may be that the lattice extension cannot be set down on the ground by telescoping and lowering the main boom.

In this case, you can use the outriggers to incline the truck crane.

G

Risk of accidents if the wheels touch the ground Make sure that the wheels do not touch the ground when the truck crane has been inclined. In this way you prevent a reduction in the stability of the truck crane, which could lead to it tipping over when setting the angle of the lattice extension.

• Extend the outrigger cylinders on the counterweight side.

• Extend the outrigger cylinders on the main boom side. Be sure that the

If a hook block is reeved on the main boom during operation with the lattice extension, the loads given in the Lifting capacity tables decrease and the RCL subsequently switches off earlier.

The values which must be deducted from the load capacities depend on the length of the lattice extension and the weight of the hook block. You will find a table with the values in the Lifting capacity tables in the Section Remarks about working with the swing-away lattice extension.

There are different procedures when setting the RCL, depending on whether the hydraulically derricking lattice extension or the manually inclinable lattice extension is rigged.

Derricking the main boom Risk of accidents if the RCL is overridden Do not override the RCL when lowering the boom into horizontal position.

If the RCL is overridden, the crane operation will not be monitored and the truck crane will overturn if it moves outside of the permissible working range.

If the following prerequisites are met, lowering into the horizontal position with swing-away lattice and a slewing range of 360° is permitted and is monitored by the RCL. – The current rigging mode with the rigged lattice extension is entered on the RCL, and the corresponding RCL code is displayed as per the Lifting capacity table.

– The current reeving type on the lattice extension is entered for the hoisting gear whose hoist rope is secured to the lattice extension.

– Apart from the hook block there is no load on the lattice extension.

– The main boom is fully retracted.

Telescoping with rigged lattice extension Risk of overloading the main boom When you are telescoping the main boom with the lattice extension rigged, you may not simultaneously slew the superstructure.

This prevents the main boom being subjected to additional side forces and increased vibration and becoming overloaded.

The telescoping of the main boom with a rigged lattice extension is monitored by the RCL. The telescoping will only be released if the main boom is derricked to a certain angle and a maximum permissible load is not exceeded.

The required angle (between 70° and 83°) depends on: – the length of the swing-away lattice extension, – the inclination or angle of the swing-away lattice extension, – the extended length of the main boom, – the rigged counterweight, – the rigged outrigger span.

You will find the required main boom angle and the maximum permissible load (weight of the hook block) in the Lifting capacity tables, in Chapter Rigging tables – Lattice extension.

If the main boom angle is too small for telescoping with the rigged lattice extension, the RCL shows the corresponding error message.

When operating the hydraulically derricking lattice extension, there are two additional points to be considered: – When using the hydraulically derricking lattice extension, different lifting capacities are released for the angles 0°, 0 - 20° and 20 - 40°. Lowering the lattice extension can lead to the RCL shutting down, when the currently raised load in the recently set angle range is not permitted.

Information about the main boom operation when the lattice extension is folded/rigged

Folded

This section applies when the lattice extension is folded at the side.

If a lattice extension is folded at the side during operation with the main boom, the loads given in the Lifting capacity tables decrease.

The relevant formulas and examples for calculating these values during operations planning can be found in the lifting capacity tables in the Section Remarks about working with the swing away lattice extension.

The decreased values are shown directly on the RCL insert in the Maximum load display (1).

Rigged

S

This section applies when the lattice extension is rigged and locked to the main boom head.

Risk of overturning when rigging mode is impermissible The main boom operation with a rigged lattice extension is only permissible in rigging modes that are also permissible for the rigged lattice extension (outrigger span, counterweight, slewing range).

When you set up rigging modes that are only valid for main boom operation without a rigged lattice extension (e.g. Free on wheels working position), then the truck crane could overturn during operation.

For operation with the main boom with a rigged lattice extension, you must enter the current rigging mode for the main boom without a lattice extension on the RCL.

13.03.2015

The values given in the corresponding Lifting capacity tables for the lifting capacities and for the permissible wind speeds decrease in this case.

3 - 102

3 113 217 en

Operating manual lattice extension GMK 3060i

8.7/15 m swing-away lattice extension 3.8 Operation with the lattice extension

Reduction of the lifting capacity The Maximum load display (1) does not show the reduced values.

The RCL also takes into account the load moment affected by the currently rigged extension and will correspondingly switch off earlier.

In the Lifting capacity tables you will find tables with values for the reduction of the lifting capacities in the Section Remarks about working with the swingaway lattice extension. The given values for reduction are only maximum values for certain rigging modes (angle and length of main boom and lattice extension).

However, the RCL takes into account the value for the currently rigged lattice extension, adds the weight of the raised load and displays the sum on the Current load display (1).

The displayed value could deviate from the value that was previously calculated during the operations planning.

If this is the case, the RCL is not defective. Do not override the RCL, even when the displayed value is higher than the calculated value.

Risk of accidents when RCL is overridden Never override the RCL. If the RCL is overridden, the crane operations will not be monitored and the truck crane will overturn if you leave the permissible working range.

Reduced values for the maximum wind speed There are also the maximum permissible wind speeds for this special rigging mode in the tables with values for the reduction of the lifting capacities.

• Stop operating the crane when the specified wind speeds have been reached.

8.7/15 m swing-away lattice extension 3.9 Turning loads with the lattice extension

3.9

Turning loads with the lattice extension Two-hook operation is required to turn loads.

G Prerequisites

Risk of accidents due to incorrect procedure Before turning loads, observe all the prerequisites specified in this section and proceed exactly as described. This way, you avoid accidents due to overload.

– The main hoist rope is reeved on the main boom.

– The auxiliary hoist rope is reeved on the lattice extension.

– The main hoist rope is reeved with the same or a higher number of falls than the auxiliary hoist rope.

3.9.1

Setting the RCL

Switch on the auxiliary hoist and enter the reeving

Before lifting the load, the number of currently reeved falls of both the hoists must be entered at the RCL so that they can be immediately taken into account in case you switch between the hoists later after turning the loads.

The load must first be lifted using the auxiliary hoist. For this purpose, the RCL must first be switched over to the auxiliary hoist so that the relevant reeving is taken into account.

Proceed as follows:

• Switch off both hoists – Displays (1) and (2) are red.

• Switch the main hoist on – Display (1) is green.

13.03.2015

• Enter the number of falls (1) currently reeved on the main hoist.

8.7/15 m swing-away lattice extension 3.9 Turning loads with the lattice extension

• Switch the auxiliary hoist on – Display (1) is green.

• Enter the number of falls currently reeved on the auxiliary hoist.

• Enter the RCL code that corresponds to the rigging mode as per the Lifting capacity table for the lattice extension; à Setting the RCL, p. 3 - 96.

The RCL now takes into account: – the reeving for the auxiliary hoist and – the Lifting capacity tables for the lattice extension.

13.03.2015

H

In two-hook operation, the loads given in the Lifting capacity table are reduced by the weight of both reeved hook blocks.

Turning a load

H

Before turning loads, check whether these procedures are in accordance with the regulations in the country in which you are working.

• Check whether all prerequisites have been met;

à Prerequisites, p. 3 - 105.

• Check whether the RCL is correctly set;

à Setting the RCL, p. 3 - 105.

G H

Risk of accidents due to overload Ensure that the RCL is set for operation with the lattice extension during the entire procedure and only move the load at minimum speed.

In this way you prevent the crane from becoming overloaded.

As soon as the load is on two hooks, there will be slight differences in the Current load display. However, these deviations are on the safe side with regard to RCL shutdown.

• (A) – Lift the load fully using the lattice extension.

• (B) – Sling the load additionally at the main boom.

3.10

Driving with rigged crane with a rigged lattice extension This section describes how you can move the truck crane with an installed counterweight and rigged lattice extension (e.g. when the lattice extension cannot be rigged on the site due to lack of space).

Risk of accidents due to swinging hook block Secure the hook block against swinging when driving the equipped truck crane.

Risk of overturning when rotating the superstructure Before a rigged crane can be driven, the superstructure must be locked and the slewing gear brake must be engaged.

Risk of accidents due to partially obstructed view of the truck crane When moving the rigged truck crane, always keep in contact with a banksman, either by sight or by means of radio.

Risk of accidents when driving from the crane cab Before driving the truck crane from the crane cab, observe all instructions in the Operating instructions GMK 3060i and set the rigging mode described Operating instructions GMK 3060i - Drivtherein for free-standing work; ing from the driver's cab or Driving from the crane cab.

8.7/15 m swing-away lattice extension 3.10 Driving with rigged crane with a rigged lattice extension

3.10.1

Driving route The route must be along a flat, even surface. The level adjustment system cannot compensate for uneven surfaces. If the surface pressure of the tyres exceeds the permissible load on the ground, the bearing surface pressure must be increased using packing made of durable material (e.g. wooden planks).

S 3.10.2

Risk of damage to tyres Check the pressure in the tyres before moving the rigged truck crane.

The truck crane may be moved only if tyre pressures are at the prescribed Operating instructions GMK 3060i – Section 1 Driving – Technical dalevels; ta.

Do not reduce the tyre pressure.

à

Boom positions and axle loads The truck crane may only be moved under certain circumstances. The main boom and the lattice extension must be moved to specified positions, depending on the counterweight installed.

S

Risk of damage to the axle lines Always move the main boom and the lattice extension to the specified position before you move the rigged truck crane. Positions which deviate from the specified position cause impermissible loads on the axle lines.

• Enter RCL code according to the Lifting capacity table for the actual rigging mode of the truck crane with the rigged lattice extension.

• Move the main boom and the lattice extension into the prescribed posi-

13.03.2015

tions. The prescribed boom position can be found in the following tables.

G Information about the tables

Risk of accidents when RCL is overridden Always set the RCL code corresponding to the current rigging mode when you derrick the main boom or lattice extension into the prescribed position.

Do not override the RCL; the prescribed positions in the following tables are all within the areas which are permitted according to the Lifting capacity tables.

The truck crane operates without overload protection when the RCL is overridden!

The axle loads specified in the tables relate to – a driving mode with the basic unit and – to the specified, maximally reeved hook block or hook tackle. Larger hook blocks must be unreeved.

In the case of different tyres, the axle load changes by double the weight difference of a wheel; Spare wheel in the section titled Technical data in the Operating instructions GMK 3060i.

Risk of accidents due to incorrect procedure Before turning loads, observe all the prerequisites specified in this section and proceed exactly as described. This way, you avoid accidents due to overload.

– The main hoist rope is reeved on the main boom.

– The auxiliary hoist rope is reeved on the auxiliary single-sheave boom top.

– The main hoist rope is reeved with the same or a higher number of falls than the auxiliary hoist rope.

4.5.1

Setting the RCL Before lifting the load, the number of currently reeved falls of both the hoists must be entered at the RCL so that they can be immediately taken into account in case you switch between the hoists later after turning the loads.

The load must first be lifted using the auxiliary hoist. For this purpose, the RCL must first be switched over to the auxiliary hoist so that the relevant reeving is taken into account.

Proceed as follows:

• Switch off both hoists – Displays (1) and (2) are red.

• Switch the main hoist on – Display (1) is green.

Setting the RCL

H

If a hook block is reeved on the main boom during operation with the heavy load lattice extension, the loads given in the Lifting capacity tables decrease and the RCL switches off earlier.

The values which must be deducted from the load capacities depend on the length of the lattice extension and the weight of the hook block. You will find a table with the values in the Lifting capacity tables in the Section Remarks about working with the heavy load lattice extension.

For the heavy load lattice extension, the length and the set angle of the heavy load lattice extension are also entered and displayed.

• Enter the current reeving at the RCL. • Enter the current rigging mode on the RCL, either using the corresponding RCL code according to the Lifting capacity table or using the individual components.

• Check whether the current rigging mode of the truck crane corresponds to the displayed rigging mode.

Derricking the main boom Risk of accidents if the RCL is overridden Do not override the RCL when lowering the boom into horizontal position.

If the RCL is overridden, the crane operation will not be monitored and the truck crane will overturn if it moves outside of the permissible working range.

If the following prerequisites are met, lowering into the horizontal position with heavy load lattice extension and a slewing range of 360° is permitted and is monitored by the RCL. – The current rigging mode with the rigged heavy load lattice extension is entered on the RCL, and the corresponding RCL code is displayed as per the Lifting capacity table.

– The current reeving type on the swing-away lattice extension is entered for the hoisting gear whose hoist rope is reeved on the heavy load lattice extension.

– Apart from the hook block, there is no load on the heavy load lattice extension.

– The main boom is fully retracted.

The RCL will only release the main boom for raising and setting it down when the main boom is completely retracted.

13.03.2015

When all of the above prerequisites have been satisfied, the RCL will automatically switch to the rigging tables and derricking is then also permitted within the angle range that is below the working range of approx. 65°.

Telescoping with rigged heavy load lattice extension Risk of overloading the main boom If you are telescoping the main boom with the rigged heavy load lattice extension, you may not simultaneously slew the superstructure.

This prevents the main boom being subjected to additional side forces and increased vibration and becoming overloaded.

The telescoping of the main boom with a rigged heavy load lattice extension is monitored by the RCL. The telescoping will only be released if the main boom is derricked to a certain angle and a maximum permissible load is not exceeded.

The required angle (between 60° and 70°) depends on: – the angle of the heavy load lattice extension – the extended length of the main boom – the rigged counterweight – the rigged outrigger span You will find the required main boom angle and maximum permissible load (weight of the hook block) in the Lifting capacity tables, in the Chapter Rigging tables – Heavy load lattice extension.

If the main boom angle is too small for telescoping with the heavy load lattice extension, the RCL displays a appropriate error message.

The telescoping mechanism is operated in the same way as the main boom;

Information about the main boom operation when the heavy load lattice extension is folded/rigged

Folded

This section applies to instances when the heavy load lattice extension is folded at the side.

If the heavy load lattice extension is folded at the side during operation with the main boom, the loads given in the Lifting capacity tables decrease.

The relevant formulas and examples for calculating these values during operations planning can be found in the Lifting capacity tables in the Section Remarks about working with the heavy load lattice extension.

The decreased values are shown directly on the RCL insert in the Maximum load display (1).

Rigged

G

This section applies to instances when the heavy load lattice extension is rigged and locked at the front to the main boom head.

Risk of overturning with impermissible rigging mode Main boom operation with a rigged heavy load lattice extension is only permissible in rigging modes that are also permissible for the rigged heavy load lattice extension (outrigger span, counterweight, slewing range).

If you set up rigging modes that are only valid for main boom operation without a rigged heavy load lattice extension (e.g. Free on wheels working position), there is the danger of the truck crane overturning during operation.

For operation with the main boom with a rigged heavy load lattice extension, you must enter the current rigging mode for the main boom without a heavy load lattice extension on the RCL.

13.03.2015

In this case, the values given in the corresponding Lifting capacity tables for the lifting capacities decrease.

3 113 217 en

Operating manual lattice extension GMK 3060i

Heavy load lattice extension 5.5 Operation with the heavy load lattice extension

Reduction of the lifting capacity The Maximum load display (1) does not show the reduced values.

The RCL also takes into account the load moment affected by the rigged heavy load lattice extension and switches off earlier.

In the Lifting capacity tables you will find tables with values for the reduction of the lifting capacities in the Section Remarks about working with the heavy load lattice extension. The given values for reduction are only maximum values for certain rigging modes (angle and length of main boom and lattice extension).

The RCL, however, takes into account the value for the currently rigged heavy load lattice extension, adds the weight of the raised load and displays the sum on the Current load display (1).

The displayed value could deviate from the value that was previously calculated during the operations planning.

If this is the case, the RCL is not defective. Do not override the RCL, even if the displayed value is higher than the calculated value.

13.03.2015

G

Risk of accidents when RCL is overridden Never override the RCL. If the RCL is overridden, the crane operations will not be monitored and the truck crane will overturn if you leave the permissible working range.

Heavy load lattice extension 5.6 Turning loads with the heavy load lattice extension

5.6

Turning loads with the heavy load lattice extension Two-hook operation is required to turn loads.

G Prerequisites

Risk of accidents due to incorrect procedure Before turning loads, observe all the prerequisites specified in this section and proceed exactly as described. This way, you avoid accidents due to overload.

– The main hoist rope is reeved on the main boom.

– The auxiliary hoist rope is reeved on the lattice extension.

– The main hoist rope is reeved with the same or a higher number of falls than the auxiliary hoist rope.

5.6.1

Setting the RCL

Switching on the auxiliary hoist and entering the reeving

Before lifting the load, the number of currently reeved falls of both the hoists must be entered at the RCL so that they can be immediately taken into account in case you switch between the hoists later after turning the loads.

The load must first be lifted using the auxiliary hoist. For this purpose, the RCL must first be switched over to the auxiliary hoist so that the relevant reeving is taken into account.

Proceed as follows:

• Switch off both hoists – Displays (1) and (2) are red.

• Switch the main hoist on – Display (1) is green.

• Enter the number of falls (1) currently reeved on the main hoist.
